Hosted by the SAG-AFTRA President's Task Force on Education, Outreach & Engagement, join us for a conversation with leading intimacy coordinators about how they’re working to make nudity and intimate scenes safer and more comfortable for performers.

Intimacy coordinators play an important role on set working to advocate as a liaison between actors and production. In this discussion, we’ll look deeper at this growing profession and discuss the new industry-wide standards for training, registration and continuing education of intimacy coordinators recently released by the union.

This PTEOE livestream will have an ASL interpreter and is live captioned.
